Leaderboards should allow index offset in query to allow for "around me" view in Spectacles
It would be useful for both friends and global to be able to center the results around the player so they know who they have to beat around them versus just the top
1 voteWe see this in the mobile version of leaderboard. We will review with the Spectacles team and get back to you!

Better error feedback from publish bot
When publishing, the error message is often unclear for creators. Only after contacting support do we learn the real issue. Could these detailed errors be included in the feedback when a lens is not accepted?

Provide websocket support for camera kit
Having websocket support will open up many cool applications for camera kit for web, so it would be great to have it supported on camera kit!

Connected Lenses should allow disconnect without quitting Lens
Currently connected lenses have no mechanism for quitting either to go back to single player in Lenses or to join a different session without restarting the application. Having this would help users be able to engage in the Lens longer without having to quit.

Spectacles - Browser javascript control
Navigating and interacting with websites is a real pain point on the Spectacles at the moment. Being able to create custom UI elements in lenses to control websites would make the problems a lot better.
Doing this with JavaScript console commands mapped to lens input is the most obvious choice, but introduces security risk for the end user. But i think it's worth looking into as it would open up a world of possibilities.

Feature Suggestion for Lens Web Builder & Mobile App: Add Lens Tag Input on Submission
Hey team,
As a Snap Lens Network partner, we at Arexa & Bharat XR have been actively hosting SnapAR meetups across India — bringing together creators, students, and professionals to explore the power of AR using Snapchat’s ecosystem. In our recent sessions, we introduced participants to the new Lens Web Builder and Lens Studio mobile app, and the feedback has been phenomenal. The tools are incredibly easy, fun, and accessible — especially for first-time users.
That said, we wanted to share a small but valuable suggestion based on our experience:
During our meetups, we ask all participants to use our…

Preview Stops Working with TypeScript Errors
When writing TypeScript code that contains errors, the preview stops functioning, even if the erroneous code has not been added to the scene. Additionally, the logger does not display any information regarding the errors.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Write TypeScript code with syntax or type errors.
- Observe that the preview stops working.
- Check the logger for error messages.
Expected Behavior: The preview should continue to work, and the logger should display relevant error messages indicating what is wrong with the TypeScript code.
Actual Behavior: The preview ceases to function, and no error messages are shown in the logger.

A/B testing in lenses
During the latest SLN all hands the team gave some insights into game lenses that caught my eye:
Having the user's front camera visible with picture in picture lead to higher engagement on spotlight. Versus focusing entirely on the game lead to higher retention, and greater shareability between friends.
As lenses become more and more complex, it would be great to have more insight into what makes our lenses engaging. Having a A/B testing suite would go a long way for optimization.
Give us the ability able to swap out or toggle certain components, and see which variant gives the…

Old ML Face models don't load in LS 5.0
The old models I created while Snap ML was in beta don't load in Lens Studio 5.0.
I also tried importing the .dng file to LS 5, but I can't make it work. Is it possible to make it compatible with LS 5? Currently I need to create these kind of project in LS 4.
Also I feel like the quality of the models created today is lower than the ones created during the closed beta.
Thanks

Monetize Lenses
This is probably not related to Lens Studio it self but it would be good for the ecosystem to bring back Digital Goods. It gives more value to invest time and skills into working for Snap projects.
3 votesWe want to bring back IAP, but there are some things we need to do first to give it a better chance at driving results for you all. In the meantime we're bullish on Lens+ and think this can be a huge opportunity. More on this soon...

Clear persitant storage on device
It would be handy to remotely clear persistant storage on the physical device via Lens Studio. To do it now you need to go deep in the Snapchat settings to do so.

Double click on Script name should go to editor
I would like to double click on the script in the Inspector and go instantly to my code editor of choice. Now I need to highlight the script file and double click on the file in the assetbrowser, this was working in 4.55.

Modifier tools with hard numbers
In LS I would like to hold Shift or CTRL (CMD) and then when I manipulate (Rotate, Move) a sceneobject I want it to snap to whole numbers: rotating with 15 degress per 'snap' or move whole 10 centimeters.

Better Audio Component
We need better Audio Component, (scrub forward/backward, pause, stretch)
AudioComponent currently does not support dynamic playback rate or pitch adjustment, nor does it offer any time-stretching capability necessary for realistic scratching.
2 votesSome of this can be accomplished my manipulating the Audio Component directly (https://developers.snap.com/lens-studio/api/lens-scripting/classes/Built-In.AudioOutputProvider.html)
But understood on the feedback. We will look into it

Cylindrical Image Targets
Was recently exploring 8th wall and one thing that stood out was cylindrical and conical image targets. Given that we have soo many designs in real life that are on curved surfaces like bottle, poles, pipes etc. cylindrical targets would really help in Lens Studio as well
3 votesThanks for this feedback Krunal. This is something long talked about. I'm curious, to what degree do you think that training your own custom object detection models solves for this?

World mesh should be accessible via script
Currently the world mesh mesh information is not accessible via script. This makes it difficult to do things like spatial understanding (i.e. voxelization of the mesh) as well as writing custom physics responses to the mesh.

Dynamic Image Tracker
Similar to Vuforia’s runtime image target API, it would be great if Lens Studio supported Dynamic Image Tracking, allowing creators to create and load image targets at runtime instead of predefining them during lens creation.
Use Case:
• Let users scan custom images (from camera or gallery) during the lens experience.
• Enable personalized AR interactions, dynamic campaigns, and scalable retail activations.Why It Matters:
This would unlock real-time, user-generated tracking, pushing the creative and commercial potential of Snap AR far beyond static image markers.
2 votesDefinitely see the appeal here. We will review to see if this is something that aligns with us. Thanks!

Allow access to audio output from lens through Camera Kit for web
We are currently not able to access the audio from the lenses when using Camera Kit for web, this cause the problem of not being able to record the audio through a custom recording feature on the web app.
Recording the audio from the lens is essential as brands would want their SFX/music in the lens to be within the recorded video when their users share it on the social media.See the discord thread for reference: https://discord.com/channels/1044383298002112532/1344543101687042080
2 votesWhile a native way to complete this would certainly be best.

UI Feedback Improvement for Importing External Resources in Lens Studio
Hi Lens Studio Team,
I’d like to request an improvement to the UI feedback when importing external resources into Lens Studio.
This morning, I attempted to add a script to a new component by searching for it by name. Lens Studio found the script, but since it wasn’t in the project folder, it automatically began importing it. However, because there was no clear indication of the import process (apart from the console log, which I didn’t check immediately), I attempted to add the script multiple times, only realizing later that it was still being imported. Eventually, this caused Lens Studio…
3 votesHey Vincent,
As attached, we do have a WIP indicator. However, it would be good for us to understand the crash a little bit better. (We are behind on this request, so you might have it anymore) but feel free to send the script.
